When a regular cocaine user experiences a puffy and bloated appearance in the face, especially the cheeks. It’s not uncommon to experience puffiness and facial bloating after using cocaine. It even has its own name: “coke bloat.” It’s often most noticeable in the cheeks and under the chin.
We often imagine cocaine users as sickly individuals, having not eaten for days at a time while dripping calories on the dance floor (or just talking fast). And while that may be true to some degree, many who use cocaine eventually develop “coke bloat,” a considerable ballooning of the cheeks that contributes to the general appearance of weight gain. Examples include pretty much every celeb ever.
